Flow passages extend through the annulus surrounding the cable to enable lubricant and coolant fluid to be pumped from the surface to the pump assembly.
Description
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates in general to electrical submersible well pump assemblies, and in particular to an electrical submersible pump supported on coil tubing.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Electrical submersible pumps for oil wells include a centrifugal pump mounted to a downhole electrical motor. In a conventional installation, the upper end of the pump secures to a lower end of a string of production tubing. The production tubing comprises threaded sections of tubing secured together, each about 30 feet long. The motor usually locates below the pump. A power cable extends from the surface and straps to the exterior of the tubing. The tubing supports the weight of the pump assembly. The weight of the power cable is also supported by the tubing through the straps which secure the power cable to the tubing. The well fluid is produced through the tubing to the surface.
Periodically, the pump assembly must be pulled to the surface for replacement or maintenance. Also, the well may require maintenance. This requires a pulling unit which will unscrew and pull the sections of production tubing from the well. Pulling the pump and putting it back into the well on the sections of tubing can be time consuming. It also requires a unit which has a draw works for pulling the production tubing.
Proposals have been made in the past to eliminate the production tubing. Conventional electrical power cable cannot support the weight of the pump assembly, and in fact cannot even support its own weight in most wells. Consequently, a special power cable that would be weight supporting would be required. Although proposals has been made to utilize weight supporting cable, it is not common practice.
Also it has been proposed to support the electrical submersible pump assembly on coil tubing. Coil tubing is a continuous length of tubing that when pulled, will wind on a large reel located at the surface. The coil tubing is of smaller diameter than typical production tubing but it is of steel and will support weight. Although proposals have been made, there are no installations of electrical submersible pumps on coil tubing known to Applicant.
In this invention, the electrical submersible pump assembly is supported on coil or continuous tubing. The cable extends through the coil tubing for supplying electrical power to the pump assembly. The cable has an outer diameter that is less than the inner diameter of the tubing, resulting in an annulus surrounding the cable. Standoff means extends in this annulus for frictionally engaging the cable with the coil tubing to support the weight of the cable with the tubing.
Preferably, the annulus serves as a flow passage means for circulating fluid from the surface. Preferably the production from the pump flows around the exterior of the coil tubing to the surface. Cooling or lubricating fluid is circulated down the annulus surrounding the cable.
In one embodiment, the standoff members comprise elastomeric rings which encircle the cable and are spaced apart from each other along the length of the cable. The rings have flow passages extending through them for allowing fluid to be circulated through the annulus.
In another embodiment, the standoff means comprises a plurality of longitudinal elastomeric standoff members. These standoff members are strips extending longitudinally along the cable. Each strip is circumferentially spaced apart from the other strips to concentrically support the cable in the continuous tubing. Spaces between the strips define flow passages through the annulus.
In a third embodiment, the standoff members comprise longitudinally extending tubes. These tubes are also spaced circumferentially around the cable and extend continuously to the surface. The tubes frictionally engage the outer diameter of the cable and the inner diameter of the continuous tubing. The tubes serve as flow passages for circulating cooling or lubricant fluids to the pump.
In all three embodiments, preferably the elastomeric standoff members are of a material that expands when contacted by lubricating oil, a swelling agent, or heat. The expanding causes the standoff members to tightly grip the cable and the inner wall of the coil tubing.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating an electrical submersible well pump installation constructed in accordance with this invention.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view illustrating a portion of the continuous tubing and electrical cable of the pump assembly of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a transverse sectional view illustrating an alternate embodiment of standoff members for the electrical cable and continuous tubing of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a transverse sectional view illustrating another alternate embodiment of standoff members for the cable and continuous tubing of FIG. 1.
Referring to FIG. 1, the well includes casing 11 which will be cemented in place. In the embodiment shown, a tubular liner 13 extends through the casing 11. Liner 13, which serves as production tubing, is of a conventional type, having sections secured together by threads. A pump assembly 15 is supported inside the liner 13. A releasable packer 17 will support the pump assembly 15 in liner 13, and seal the annulus around pump assembly 15.
As shown also in FIG. 2, an electrical cable 31 extends through the coil tubing 29 from the pump assembly 15 to the surface. Electrical cable 31 supplies power to motor 25 and may be of conventional type. A tree 33 at the upper end of casing 11 provides pressure and valve control. A flow line 35 extends from tree 33 for delivering well fluids pumped by pump 19.
Referring to FIG. 2, electrical cable 31 is conventional, having three electrical conductors 37, one for each phase of the electrical motor 25. Electrical conductors 37 are encased in insulating layers 39. An elastomeric jacket 41 surrounds insulating layers 39, which will be generally spaced 180 degrees apart along the longitudinal axis of jacket 41. An outer elastomeric layer 43 surrounds jacket 41.
The transverse cross section of electrical cable 31 is cylindrical. The outer diameter of outer layer 43 is significantly less than the inner diameter 45 of coil tubing 29. This results in an annulus 47 surrounding electrical cable 31.
A standoff means is employed to support electrical cable 31 in coil tubing 29. In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the standoff means comprises a plurality of standoff rings 49. Standoff rings 49 are preferably elastomeric rings of a donut shape similar to an O-ring. However, the rings 49 could be a combination of other materials, such as a metal clamping ring with an elastomeric outer diameter or coating. Each standoff ring 49 is axially spaced apart from adjacent standoff rings 49, preferably by several inches. Each standoff ring 49 has an inner perimeter which will frictionally engage the outer diameter of electrical cable 31. The outer perimeter frictionally engages inner diameter 45 of coil tubing 29. The frictional contact is sufficient to transfer the weight of electrical cable 31 to the coil tubing 29. Standoff rings 49 are preferably of an elastomeric material which will swell or expand upon application of lubricating oil and heat from downhole well temperatures. Elastomeric materials which swell with heat and oil contact and which are suitable for use as a standoff ring 49 are known. U.S. Pat. No. 4,513,215, April 23, 1985. David I. Del Serra, describes a suitable material, all of which material is hereby incorporated by reference.
A split 51 in each standoff ring 49 enables the standoff ring 49 to be placed around electrical cable 31 during the manufacturing process. A plurality of flow passages 53 extend through each standoff ring 49 parallel to the longitudinal axis of coil tubing 29. Each flow passage 53 is preferably a small hole extending from an upper side to a lower side of each standoff ring 49, but could also be a channel along the outer diameter of each ring 49. Flow passages 53 are spaced circumferentially around the standoff rings 49. Flow passages 53 could allow fluid to be pumped down annulus 47 for lubricating or cooling of the pump assembly 15, for cooling of the motor 25, and for transfer of cable 31 heat to the coiled tubing 29. The fluid pumped down passages 53 could also cause swelling or expansion of the standoff rings 49.
To install the pump assembly 15, the operator will connect the lower end of coil tubing 29 to adapter 27. The operator lowers the pump assembly 15 using the coil tubing reel. The pump assembly 15 will land in packer 17 in a conventional manner. The weight of the pump assembly 15 while being lowered into the well will be supported by the coil tubing 29. The weight of the electrical cable 31 will be supported by the coil tubing 29 through the frictional engagement of the standoff rings 49.
During operation, power will be supplied through conductors 37 to rotate motor 25, which in turn rotates pump 19. Well fluid will be drawn in from the well through ports 21 and pumped out ports 23 above packer 17. The well fluid flows up through liner 13 around the exterior of coil tubing 29.
At the same time, the operator may wish to supply a cooling fluid or lubricating fluid to pump assembly 15. The operator can handle this by pumping fluid from the surface down the annulus 47 and through the flow passages 53.
The cross sectional view of FIG. 3 represents an alternate embodiment, with common components to those in FIG. 1 being designated the same numeral with the addition of the prefix numeral "1". In this embodiment, longitudinal standoff members 55 are employed rather than annular standoff rings 49 (FIG. 2). Standoff members 55 are strips of an elastomeric material a few feet in length. The elastomeric material is also preferably of a type that swells with contact with oil and heat. Each standoff member 55 extends a few feet along the length of electrical cable 131. Axial spaces (not shown) may exist between upper and lower ends of standoff members 55 above and below each other.
In the embodiment of FIG. 4, common components to that of FIG. 1 will be indicated with the same numeral with the prefix "2". In this embodiment, the standoff members comprise tubes 59. Preferably, three tubes 59 are employed, each spaced 120 degrees apart from the other. Each tube 59 has a portion or side that frictionally engages the outer diameter of electrical cable 231 and an opposite side that frictionally engages the inner diameter of coil tubing 229. Cooling or lubricating fluids can be pumped down and circulated back up the tubes 59, or the fluid could be delivered to associated equipment, such as packers, or to the wellbore for chemical treatment. The frictional engagement of the tubes 59 supports the weight of the electrical cable 231. Tubes 59 extend continuously from the pumping assembly to the surface. Tubes 59 are also preferably of a material which swells upon application of heat and oil.
The invention has significant advantages. The standoff members will support the weight of the cable within the coil tubing. Making the outer diameter of the cable significantly less than the inner diameter of the coil tubing provides an annular space through which fluids can be circulated for cooling or lubricating.
While the invention has been shown in only three of its forms, it should be apparent to those skilled in the art that it is not so limited but is susceptible to various changes without departing from the scope of the invention.
